Grzelcyk (undisclosed) will miss Saturday's Game 7 against Carolina, Fluto Shinzawa of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Grzelcyk played the first five games of the series -- going scoreless while averaging 18:09 of ice time -- but sat out Game 6 with his undisclosed injury. If the Bruins advance past Carolina to Round 2, it's unclear when the 28-year-old blueliner might be able to return.

Grzelcyk (undisclosed) won't play in Thursday's Game 6 against the Hurricanes, Matt Porter of The Boston Globe reports.
EDGE Analysis
Grzelcyk has evidently been "playing through stuff," so he'll sit Thursday's potential elimination game out. If the Bruins aren't able to force a Game 7, Grzelcyk will finish the year having collected 24 points through 73 regular-season contests and zero points through five postseason appearances.

Grzelcyk (rest) will not play Friday in Toronto, Conor Ryan of MassLive.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Grzelcyk will be joined by seven other Bruins resting in advance of the postseason, which starts Monday. He finishes his age-28 season having recorded 24 points, a plus-22 rating and 118 shots on goal -- all of which are new career highs.

Grzelcyk (upper body) will be back in the lineup versus the Senators on Thursday, Fluto Shinzawa of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Grzelcyk wrote his name on the scoresheet in just one of the team's last 12 contests while chipping in just 16 shots over the stretch. As such, the 28-year-old defender is unlikely to offer more than mid-range fantasy value, even if he returns to the second power-play unit.

Grzelcyk (upper body) will not be available Monday against the Kings, Fluto Shinzawa of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Grzelcyk was considered a game-time decision and will end up missing his first game since Feb. 12. The 28-year-old may have picked up the injury during Saturday's win over Columbus. Jack Ahcan is expected to take his place in Monday's lineup.
